That was Mayor Rahm Emanuel's reaction Thursday to the New York Daily News' decision to splash his face on its front page on Independence Day alongside the unflattering headline "DUMB TRACK MIND."

The Daily News was mocking Emanuel after he boasted about the CTA's superiority to the Big Apple's subway system in a New York Times Op-Ed on Monday.

It wrote, "Rahm touts Chicago trains, but AT LEAST our riders don't get SHOT on the way home" and inaccurately dubbed Chicago the nation's "MURDER CAPITAL."

But what looked to most people a little like a self-inflicted wound by Team Rahm was actually a sick burn of President Donald Trump, if you believe the mayor.

"I would just say that if anyone should be upset, I would say it's the Trump administration, since I think their infrastructure plan is all hat and no cattle," Emanuel said when asked at an event at the Back of the Yards High School about the unkind treatment he'd received at the hands of the New York media.
